Kofax Express utilizes the same interface as
Microsoft Office 2007 applications, with the most commonly used commands and
features readily accessible from a ribbon bar atop the screen. Scanner
operators can keep their eyes on their work and easily invoke numerous Kofax
Express features with a single click of the mouse, resulting in quicker
adoption and greater productivity gains.

Highest Image Quality

Innovative SmoothView™ technology enables you to
manipulate multiple document images with ease. Find, replace, gather, zoom,
divide, rotate, swap, order and place document images in ways you never
could imagine with a stack of paper. Also, with the included Kofax VRS, your
images will look better than their paper originals without any pre-scan
document preparation or fiddling with scanner controls.

Zonal OCR

Kofax Express automatically extracts index field
data from documents. Users can train Kofax Express to locate the key index
information in a document and Kofax Express will automatically remember that
location and extract the data from future documents, which reduces the time
it takes to process documents and makes indexing much easier for users.

Rubber Band OCR

Kofax Express users can now easily index
documents by selecting the text in the document with their mouse. Kofax
Express automatically populates the index field with the information
highlighted by the user, saving keystrokes and making the indexing of
documents faster and easier.

Bar Code Capabilities

The enhanced bar code engine in Kofax Express
can read most commonly used 1D and 2D bar codes, even those obscured with
stamps, handwriting or coffee cup stains. Scanning in color improves
accuracy further, allowing flawless decoding of bar codes at low resolutions
(100 or 150 dpi). Kofax Express detects bar codes wherever they are placed
on a page, even when they are skewed at angles.

Watched Folder

Kofax Express automatically processes images
(TIFF, BMP, JPEG and PDF) uploaded to a watched folder as if they were
delivered from a scanner. This feature enables Kofax Express to process
images from sources such as MFPs, faxes and saved images, giving you a
single interface to your back end repository for all images from all
sources.

Searchable PDF

The Searchable PDF feature includes live text
with PDF images, enabling users to easily and accurately search for
information in PDF documents.

When a page is scanned with a folded corner,
or a forgotten sticky note still affixed, or a double-feed that escaped
detection, there is no choice but to rescan. In these instances, the
“Pointand- Click Rescan” option makes the process as painless as possible by
inserting the rescanned document in the correct position in the batch
without rescanning the entire batch.

Flexible Document Separation

Kofax Express can separate groups of
documents automatically, eliminating the need to scan documents one at a
time. Just fill your auto document feeder (ADF) to its capacity and Kofax
Express will divide the batch into individual document groups automatically
based on patch codes, bar codes or inserted blank pages. Kofax Express
allows you to process documents faster than ever before by keeping your
scanner in continuous operation while it handles the separation chores for
you.

SharePoint Support

Tight integration with Microsoft SharePoint
enables Kofax Express to index, classify and deliver documents and data into
SharePoint for easy and fast retrieval. Kofax Express also supports direct
integration with Kofax Capture and provides an export API for custom or
advanced export use cases.

Post-Scan Processing with Kofax VRS
Corrections

If Kofax Express encounters a poor quality
document it can’t convert into a legible image, it doesn’t shut down the
scanner and wait for a fix. Instead, its Kofax VRS Corrections feature
reserves the image for later inspection and correction by the scanner
operator without needing to rescan the document. Kofax Express retains
enough information from the original that the operator can manually correct
the image after scanning completion, allowing the scanner to run without
pause.

Visual Undo History

Everyone relies on the Undo button. But undo
enough steps and it’s easy to lose track of where you’ve come from, what was
undone and what can be redone safely. That’s why Kofax Express includes a
Visual Undo History feature that shows the sequence of processes that were
done – or undone – on any document image.

Optimized for High Performance

Kofax Express was designed to take full
advantage of the latest processing technologies in your computer. By
enabling multiple scan and image processing functions to run simultaneously,
Kofax Express drives your scanner at rated speed, resulting in the highest
throughput possible.

Background Export

Background Export goes hand in hand with
Searchable PDF and image compression. By processing these file types in the
background, the scan operator can continue to scan productively in the
foreground. Background export is also useful for large standard PDF or TIFF
exports.

Database Lookup

With the Database Lookup feature, the value
entered in one index field triggers a database search to fill the other
fields automatically, accelerating the indexing task while delivering
greater accuracy.
